Module 6 Assignment

The title of this course is General Semantics: An Approach to Effective Language Behavior.

In the Concerning Expectations video you viewed in Week 1, we asked you to consider what the course title might mean. We asked:

• What other "approaches" to "language behavior" (effective or otherwise) are you familiar with?
• How familiar to you is the phrase "language behavior"? Are you more familiar with "language" and "behavior" used separately? Do they even belong together?
• And what about "effective"? What do you think that means?

Final Assignment - 100 points

In no more than 250 words, provide your evaluative response to this question:

After experiencing this introduction to General Semantics, what will you take away from the course that might contribute to the effectiveness of your own language behavior?
